“…Despite its high toxicity, instability in the presence of heat, oxygen, moisture, and light, the exceptional optoelectronic properties of lead-based metal halide perovskites find great acceptance in real-world applications and make it the much desired material class in the field of photovoltaic applications. − Owing to the efforts of researchers worldwide, these halide perovskites have found extended applicability in sustainable energy-harvesting and storage devices, , LEDs, photodetectors, piezoelectric nanogenerators, and so on. However, the toxicity of lead-based compositions cannot be overlooked, and scientists are constantly making efforts to find a better alternative compound. − In this regard, the all–inorganic, lead-free halide double-perovskites are making a niche for themselves. − For example, the Cs 2 AgBiCl 6 (CABC) and Cs 2 AgInCl 6 (CAIC) compositions show excellent thermal and air stabilities but pose a challenge in its direct induction into the optoelectronic application industry. Cs 2 AgBiCl 6 is reported to have an indirect band gap of ∼2.5 eV, resulting in a weak optical absorption and emission response.…”
